Born to live and let go

They had gotten an earlier start than his father had been able to, thanks to Miach finding him in the cavern at the break of dawn and waking him. Kane was beginning to feel more comfortable at his brother's side after Miach had expressed that he missed him.. and their walk helped him relax the tension in his muscles and push the previous doubts that he had about his brother in the background of his mind. He knew where his mother and sister's den was, and he expected to find Elias still there if he was around Lirim at all. Something about the way his mother hurried off with him told him everything he needed to know... there was still quite an obvious connection between the two of them.

He just hoped Daelos heeded his warning and wasn't allowing herself to get too close to Elias. It still made his lips quiver in anger to think about Elias doing anything like what he did to himself to his sister. His chest expanded greatly as he took in a large breath of air when they crossed Lirim's territory markers, releasing it right after in the form of a heavy sigh. He looked at the twin gaze of his brother and nodded toward the den, "Ready?"

When Elias came out of the shadows of the den mouth, Kane stopped in his tracks and watched him. All of his scars and this all too familiar red eyes reminded him just a bit too much of himself, and that only made Kane even more disgusted by this man's presence. He kept a look of indifference on his features as Elias looked over him, and followed his gaze as he then switched his attention to Miach. Kane watched Miach with his lone eye, curiosity overcoming him as he gauged for his brother's reaction to Elias. Would he perceive the same evil that Kane did? Probably not, but Kane would watch with a hopeful stare all the same.
